Chapter 873: Herb Picker

Someone fainted?

Ye Feng was going to leave, but when he heard the noise, his footsteps couldn't help but stagnate, and then rushed towards the shed.

After a few days on the island, he had already discovered that because the Tiantai Islands were far from the mainland, the medical conditions on the island were relatively difficult, and one of them had a headache and brain fever, and he needed to take a boat to the nearby city to see a doctor.

And the boat docking, at least an hour, if the person inside is suffering from some kind of acute illness, the best time for treatment is to be delayed.

Although the most important thing for him is to find the whereabouts of the Shifting Flower Palace, the doctor is benevolent, as a doctor, especially as the successor of the medical god, he can't sit idly by and ignore the patient in front of him.

What a strong herbal taste......

As soon as he walked into the shack, Ye Feng couldn't help but be stunned, and he actually smelled the aroma of herbs wafting in the air.

And just a rough sniff, he smelled hundreds of medicinal herbs.

When he looked up, he immediately realized that this shack was a small medicinal herb trade fair run by the residents of the Tiantai Islands.

Although the Tiantai Islands are located on the sea, there are many cliffs and cliffs, and the climate is suitable, which is a place where many medicinal herbs grow.

"At such a young age, how can you say that you faint and faint?"

"Look at her appearance, her face is yellow and thin, I'm afraid she has some kind of acute illness, right?"

"Lao Zhou, hurry up and prepare the boat and send her to the hospital on the shore to see a doctor!"

At the same time, there was the sound of gossip from the crowd in front of them.

"Everyone, I'm a doctor!"

Hearing this voice, Ye Feng hurriedly clarified his identity and squeezed into the center of the crowd.

What a young girl......

Sweeping towards the ground in the center of the crowd, Ye Feng couldn't help but be stunned. I saw that the person who fainted to the ground turned out to be a girl who looked eighteen or nineteen years old, although her face was yellow and thin, and she looked malnourished, but her eyebrows and eyes were quite moving.

Ye Feng can pack a ticket, if this girl can take care of herself, her appearance is definitely not under Jiang Yixue's daughters.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm hungry and faint, go mix some sugar and salt water, buy a bowl of white porridge, feed her to drink, and she should be able to wake up in a short time." ”

After reaching out and touching the girl's pulse, Ye Feng immediately diagnosed the condition and said loudly to the onlookers.

The desert island is ruthless, people are affectionate, Ye Feng's words fell, and soon someone brought sugar and salt water and white porridge.

Ye Feng carefully pinched the girl's lips, poured sugar and salt water into her mouth, and then fed the salted white porridge to the girl with a spoon.

"Little doctor, she's really just fainting from hunger, isn't she suffering from some kind of emergency?"

Looking at Ye Feng's movements, the surrounding crowd asked suspiciously.

If it weren't for the fact that they had just watched Ye Feng's pulse move, they really doubted the diagnosis given by Ye Feng.

"Acute anemia, it is estimated that I am used to being hungry and full, and I haven't eaten for the past two days, and I can't hold on. ”

Ye Feng nodded firmly.

Not only the people around him, but even he himself was a little incredulous after judging the reason for the girl's fainting.

After all, in this era, it is too rare to faint due to hunger, let alone such a young and beautiful girl who faints from hunger.

So he used his mental strength to make sure again, only to find that the girl was indeed hungry and faint, and there were no other physical problems except for a small problem with a weak spleen and stomach.

"Hmmm......"

At this moment, the girl let out two low snorts between her mouth and nose, and then slowly opened her eyes.

"It's good to wake up, remember to take care of your body in the future, don't skip eating. Use this money to buy food and remember not to buy anything too greasy. ”

Seeing that the person woke up, Ye Feng casually took out a few red tickets, stuffed them into the girl's hand, and got up to leave.

"No...... I don't want your money, I can make money myself......"

But before Ye Feng could get up, the girl grabbed the money and struggled to stand up, wanting to stuff the money back to Ye Feng.

There are still people who don't want to send money......

Ye Feng was stunned, and just wanted to push the money back, but as soon as his hand was stretched out, he saw that the girl seemed to stand up a little violently, swaying unconsciously, and saw that she was about to fall to the ground.

Seeing this, Ye Feng hurriedly reached out to hold her waist, and after helping her sit down, he said with a smile: "I have nothing else to do, but I am poor and only have money left." You take it and use it first, and I will lend it to you, and then return it to me when I have the money. And you've just woken up, and you're top-heavy, so don't blame me for not waking you up anymore if you move around and faint......"

The girl didn't say a word, just pursed her lips and stubbornly stuffed the money into Ye Feng's hand.

"Why are you so stubborn, you don't want to give you money, do you want to starve yourself to death?"

Ye Feng frowned, stretched out his hand and pushed the money back.

But unexpectedly, the strength in his hand was a little bigger, and the girl was weak, and when he pushed her like this, her body shook, and she actually knocked over a cloth bag next to her to the ground.

"What is this?"

Sweeping his eyes, he saw a cluster of plants with oval green leaves and light purple and yellow-green flowers rolling out of the cloth bag, Ye Feng couldn't help but be stunned, reached out and picked up one, and put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look.

"Wild dendrobium?"

Pinching the plant and taking a closer look, Ye Feng couldn't help but glance up and down at the girl in surprise, and after seeing the blood marks on her wrists like being scratched by grass and trees, he said in surprise: "You are a medicine picker?"

Dendrobium officinale is a very exotic herb.

This herb does not grow on the cliffs, and it must also grow in the treacherous crevices of the cliffs.

The steeper the cliff, the higher the chance of Dendrobium growing on it.

Because of the dangerous growth environment, even today, wild dendrobium is a rare object.

As far as Ye Feng knew, only medicine collectors in the deep mountains dared to use the method of tying a rope around their waists to trek the cliff to pick dendrobium.

But in modern society, there are very few people who work like medicine pickers who pin their heads to their belts, and the skills of medicine pickers are passed on to men but not women, Ye Feng really didn't expect to see a living medicine picker in the Tiantai Islands.

And this discovery also made Ye Feng feel a little intimate with the girl.

Because medicine pickers and doctors can be said to be two professions that complement each other.

In the ancient era when artificial cultivation technology was not yet advanced, behind every successful doctor, there would be several medicine pickers.

Because doctors need medicinal materials to cure diseases and save people, and these medicinal materials can only be picked by those who collect them from treacherous places.

To use a modern analogy, if the ancient doctors were stars, then the medicine collectors were the behind-the-scenes staff standing behind the stars, the unsung heroes.
